Around SBN: Clippers Need To Realize That Spurs Are The Anti-Grizzlies

Tigers Not On Ted Lilly's No-Trade List

Unlike Dan Haren, the Tigers are not on Cubs pitcher Ted Lilly's no-trade list, according to Jon Paul Morosi.

Ted Lilly’s 10-team no-trade clause includes the Phillies, Twins and Rays, according to major-league sources.

But two teams with interest in Lilly — the Mets and Tigers — are not on the list. So, they could acquire him without his permission.

The Tigers are one of the teams on Dan Haren's no-trade list, meaning he would have to give the D-backs permission to do a deal with them. For Ted Lilly, however, that obstacle doesn't exist for the Tigers, which is yet another sign that a deal with the Cubs for Lilly might be much easier than one with the Diamondbacks for Haren.
